Well, not much. DL connected to sky and sky connected to mount. I understand sky does communicate coords automatically to DL. Its possible this is only for PME, but I dont think so.

Mind you, I have pinpoint, which I use for plate solving and point mapping, but pinpoint doesnt do anything during imaging between DL and sky. There is some location info etc to put in scope setup in DL once only though.

BTW pinpoint, tpoint and AAG automapper are very well worth the investment, wouldnt do without it now. Composing a pic is as simple as right click "center here" on where you want the image center to be and bang, there it is, within a few pixels, saves sometimes some 30 mins of random nudging.

And ofcause allows tools for fast perfect polar align and fast pointing maps. Sorry about the re-rant ;-)
